Vegan Cornbread Muffins – great with chili, soup, or as a snack! As a kid, one of my favorite traditions when my grandparents would visit involved going to Souplantation after a round (or two) of mini-golf. I always liked having the cornbread at Souplantation with their soups, or with butter and honey. Now with this […]
3-Ingredient Stovetop Granola Late night, dessert craving. Coconut yogurt in the fridge. Strawberry jam, too. Needs a crunchy topping. Honey granola oat bars in the pantry. Tempting. Not mine. Has honey in it. Tempting. But, no. No almonds. No walnuts. No shredded coconut. Raw cashews? Nah. Hemp seeds? eh… Really wish I had some granola. I […]

Mostly, I was looking to see if there was anything of value I could get for a family friend who’s folks are in the process of rebuilding […]
Let me just preface this by saying that this is not my favorite smoothie recipe. Not by a long shot. The point of this recipe is that it was intended as a rescue mission. And like a makeup artist in front of an ogre, well, let’s just say I can’t perform miracles. At least not […]
Pssst! Don’t tell your abuelita… I figured out how to make vegan huevos con chorizo (pronounced “WEH-vose cone cho-REE-so”), or vegan “eggs with spicy Mexican sausage”! If you’re from Spain, let’s not start a debate about the origins of chorizo. Let’s just be friends. But wait a minute, do you mean to say that a dish traditionally made […]
